About

Founded in the Spring of 2011, A Chic with Stix, LLC is a specialty field hockey and lacrosse equipment store for serious female athletes, located in Central New Jersey. After almost 12 years in business, A Chic with Stix is now a sister company to Longstreth Sporting Goods. 

Managed by Kendra Castellano, a field hockey and lacrosse enthusiast who encountered a major dilemma in her past, A Chic with Stix was established to provide a solution for female athletes encountering the same dilemma Kendra knew all too well.

Dilemma of The Past

Field Hockey and Lacrosse Equipment Store

Throughout her playing days, Kendra was a firm believer that a cardboard box and a shipping label was no way to try out a field hockey or lacrosse stick. Before A Chic with Stix, that scenario was the only option for Kendra, and many other female athletes like Kendra in Central New Jersey, when it came to purchasing serious field hockey and lacrosse equipment. Local stores proved to not carry products from some of the more technologically advanced field hockey brands like Grays, Gryphon, OBO, Osaka, Ritual, and TK.

The truth is, the average field hockey and/or lacrosse player has a stick in her hand during the season for approximately 620 minutes per week! With that being said, how can you not get a feel for a stick before you buy it?

Your Present Solution

Hence, “A Chic with Stix” was born. The sole purpose of the business is to educate female athletes more on finding the right field hockey and/or lacrosse stick in regards to size, type, and position. The store also provides an area for you to try out the stick before purchasing it.
